Pahrump affordable housing describes housing where the costs to rent or own are affordable for a median household income in Pahrump. This article focuses on the affordability of owner-occupied and private rental housing in Pahrump Nevada.

When choosing a home to live in Pahrump Nevada there are many factors to consider. For example some might choose to spend a lot on housing because they feel they can afford the luxury, while other may not have a choice. In Pahrump it is generally recommended that housing be chosen that does not exceed 30% of a household’s gross income. If at any time a Pahrump home is costing more then 30–35% of household income, then this Pahrump home is considered unaffordable. By providing Affordable housing in Pahrump many residents have the ability to maintain their housing expenses under the recommended 30%. This is why Liberty Estates provides Pahrump Affordable Housing with options to rent or rent to own in Pahrump.

For Pahrump affordable housing the federal government provides subsidies. Financial assistance is given for Pahrump homeowners by allowing them to reduce their yearly taxes by the total amount that they pay in mortgage interest. This means if the monthly payments to rent or rent to own a home in Pahrump where the exact same amount, it would still be cheaper to rent to own, since all interest paid would be applied to your yearly taxes. Additionally the government provides assistance to lower income Pahrump households with housing subsidy programs which are generally three types:

  1. “Tenant based” subsidies given to an individual household, known as the Section 8 program in Pahrump.
  2. “Project based” subsidies given to the owner of housing units that must be rented to lower income households at affordable rates, and
  3. Public Housing, which is usually owned and operated by the government.

Project based help is also provided through Pahrump Section 8. The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and USDA Rural Development administer these programs. Unfortunately both HUD and USDA Rural Development programs have not created much Pahrump affordable housing since 1986 when the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit program became the main federal program to produce Pahrump affordable homes. The Pahrump housing produced in this new program is less affordable than the former HUD programs which produced much more affordable housing in Pahrump.

Pahrump households are measured by how much they make compared to the Area Median Income or AMI which is $45,318 in Pahrump as of 2009. If you or your household are making less then this amount every year, then Pahrump Affordable Housing is a good option. To see how you compare with other Pahrump residents please see where you fall into the below:

  1. Moderate income households earn between 80% and 120% of AMI.
  2. Low income households earn between 50% and 80% of AMI.
  3. Very low income households earn no more than 50% of AMI.

The Section 8 voucher program in Pahrump allows the maximum household contribution to rent to be as high as 40% of gross income.

In 2011, the median household paid $958 per month in total housing costs, while Liberty Estates offers complete housing starting at $350 a month.

Pahrump Nevada Man Could Have Been Apple Billionaire

PAHRUMP NEVADA — Ronald G. Wayne, the third co-founder of Apple can be found leaving his home in Pahrump Nevada and heading into town on any given night after midnight.

Traveling along his favorite route dotted with multitudes of available mobile homes, he drives past Terrible’s Lakeside Casino and RV Park, then he takes a left at the mysterious building decorated with attractive women in the shape of a white castle, but burgers are not the meat for sale here.

When he arrives at a casino in Pahrump Nevada, Wayne heads directly to a penny slot machine. If it is past the 15th of the month Wayne has just cashed his Social Security check, and will have hours of entertainment trying to hit the jackpot that escaped him years ago.

As Apple basks in the glory of its latest iPhone release, just weeks after the iPad, the company exists in a large part because of this retired resident of Pahrump Nevada.

Ronald G. Wayne is considered by many as an extremely intelligent man.

He’s designed and built slot machines approved by the state’s gaming commission, invented a cable switch for field computers used in the first Gulf War, and has written two books he hopes to get published.

But some might also call him one of the unluckiest.

Wayne, though, said he doesn’t see it that way.

“I was a much better engineer than I was a businessman,” he said.

Wayne, you see, was one of the founders of Apple, one of the most successful companies in the world.

“I was a participant in this wonderful adventure,” he said.

Today, Wayne, 76, spends his days tinkering with his stamp and coin collections in a small house in beautiful Pahrump Nevada.

Wayne, who was in his 40s at the time of Apple’s founding, worked at Atari, where he met Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, who were both in their 20s.

Jobs and Wozniak started out in a computer club tearing apart business computers and converting them into personal computers at a time when such systems didn’t exist.

But then the two men got into a disagreement, Wayne said. Wozniak, who designed circuits for the project wanted to be able to market it to other companies.

Jobs disagreed and approached Wayne to persuade Wozniak not to do so.

“I invited them to my house and in a two hour conversation (with) the three of us together, I was able to convince Steve Wozniak of the reality or the propriety nature of these circuits,” Wayne said.

Jobs then proposed forming Apple, with himself and Wozniak each getting a 45 percent share of the business and Wayne offered 10 percent to act as a tiebreaker in a disagreement.

Wayne also designed Apple’s first logo, described as a whimsical 19th century design of Isaac Newton sitting under a tree with an apple on his head.

But Wayne said he got cold feet after Jobs sold the first wave of Apple computers to a store that had a poor reputation of paying its suppliers.

Wayne figured that if any company debt went bad, he would be on the hook for 10 percent of it, so he sold his share back for $800.

That share today is worth $35 billion.

Wayne said he doesn’t worry about the money he could have had; instead he said he’s happy for his former business partners.

“I’m certainly not going to waste my tomorrows worrying about whether I made the right decision yesterday,” Wayne said.
